Rooftop solar shower ideas (self.camping)

My wife and I like to car camp in the back of our Toyota Highlander on occasion, but I love a long hot shower and not everywhere we camp has a shower house.

Anybody have some cheap solar shower ideas that have worked for them? I know about the hanging bag ones but seems like those would make for a very short shower. We also may not always have a tree or good place to hang a bag shower.

I thought about just a big HDX tote up on the roof rack with a spout attached. Or maybe we just need an RV 😂

For occasional use something like the showers from Nemo are probably your best bet. If you are a DIYer, you could make your own knockoff version, most likely with some 5 gallon thick plastic jerry can.
